Abstract
The synthesis and crystal structure of the red transparent lithium boride Li6B18(Li2O), (0 < x <= 1) is reported. The lattice constants are a = 8.21708(17) angstrom and c = 4.15893(16) angstrom for x = 0.26 (powder data), a = 8.223(4) angstrom and c = 4.160(2) angstrom for x = 0.7 (single crystal data), a = 8.21179(16) angstrom and c 4.14485(13) angstrom for x = 0.9 (powder data). The compound crystallizes in the space group P6/mmm (no. 191). The crystal structure consists of B-6 octahedra forming a 3-dimensional network with large open channels. This compound has remarkable topological similarities with hexagonal tungsten bronzes and zeolites and is only formed, when a template is present during the synthesis. (C) 2007 Elsevier Masson SAS.
